well said bubba!

anyone can study a few text books,& now this makes them a approved 4x4 trainer?

so what vehicle licences do all you instructors hold to be such skilled vehicle operators?

krawlr

less wiring in a 13bt but they are heavy aswell
a bit more wiring involved with the 1kz being efi but real easy setup,not a bolt in either but the best engine by far with a few easy mods!
i got rid of the efi in my ute!

krawlr

yep the surf have a wider track(50m.m)got space the front...

krawlr

id love to see a factory toyota take the same line too buddy

whats the next vid driving over road islands

krawlr

hi are these a bearing turbo? complete units?
cheers

krawlr

big ups for ute ute man that thing is sick!
looks like it gets more flex than those "rok trucks" down in chch.....
nice design work bud dosent look rough like most bobtails ive seen!

krawlr

i guess you mean mt/r??ive had several sets 33,35,37inch & they are a bloddy tough tyre!i rate them highly for a allrounder! i have found all mtrs thou are skinny looking compared to a scorpian or bfg based on a 8inch rim. seen em used in trials,pretty hard tyre thou you may want something softer?

krawlr

have fitted 80 castor bushes & new on the rear but not at the chassis link ends....got them off warren @ 4wd bits.
yep seem to flex fine,would of done 6k on them already...
any more queries ring mike or grant @ g.guy motors bud

krawlr

you can use 80 bushes ... i got some for my prado chassis build up & is all i can say is they are blue

& i think they were from bnt?

krawlr

onya bud do what you wana do!(go the 6 turbo!) i had a 3f and used a ea falcon inj sytem worked well,imsure you could do something along those lines with a after market ecu thats boost compatable,you could also use a to4 cos those things are cheap as now & move the air no worries... the 3f wont ...

krawlr

hiya im not talking about the front end....i had mine in the rear,im sure one in the front probably works well in a low speed 4wd situation i dont know how much driving youve done on rds such as the kaikoura coast,rai/whanga saddle & thats where they come into a world of their own!it crabs reall...

krawlr

easier to get a whole new pump mike,pretty common fault....i used to carry a spare on big missions

krawlr

yes a lockrite type..went back to a open diff within a week! i heard all the horrors of putting them in swb road/offroad trucks & thought id find out....absolute dog! i would rather get towed up shit than go down that road again. people say they work better when in an automatic & not a stick...

krawlr

i know youre truck jungle from when the cammera man had it.... i remember way back when it would come into ilam toyota to get work done & i think steering stuff was done aswell....anyway,is the oil tarnished looking? sounds like the pump

krawlr

sounds like a machine! i take it these diffs are hilux with that ratio?
i would go 33s or bigger but it will screen with 33s bud!(33x12.5)epic wheel speed

krawlr

wind out the steering stops.....this is why i reckon everyone bends these arms offroad

krawlr

hey bud you running the 413 diffs? how much hp you got?( had a mate years back who had 413 diffs 32x11.5x15s & it went well but just needed more grunt he found...) as for tyres in the trial scene the general grabbers seem to be the choice of most guys.....pretty cheap too i think id be happy wit...

krawlr

hey bud north bank road has some ok spots,nothing too hardcore at all.....(head to lake chalice turnoff) i enjoy the sounds the most,portunderwood etc (hammered the whole sounds) maungatapu track which goes from pelorous bridge to maitai(nelson)and theres some good off tracks at the maitai dam end.....

krawlr

most prados can runs 33 inch tyres on stock suspension without any rubbing.... these prados all feel like they are all bottoming out when off road aye,the stock ride is absolute crap in these cruisers...(on & offroad) these prados are high enough! you only need a 50m.m lift bud,i would leave the...

krawlr

thats cool how much ? il buy one today if they have more?

ps real v8s are diesels

krawlr

yeah those cams work wel!l, we have a simular setup for freeride jetsking we use in the surf & we find the sound playback is not the best either...the wind is our biggest issue usually!
cool vid thou bud!looks like you were cruisin around dyers road area..

krawlr

yep when diesels break they arnt cheap! but longer life depending on servicing intervals etc

go the 1kz with lpg injection.....works for me

krawlr

id be fitting it at the t/case end not the pinion bud

as u said get right the fisrt time aye

krawlr

looking good mike!
good to see you removed the condensor!
if youre still having issues with cooling mike fit a scoop! cos theres really no where for all that heat to go aye?
i dont like scoops,so i packed the bonnet instead.....

krawlr

inspect the screen in the fuel feed....

and mate dont forget they have those donks in nissan civilian campers!,a light duty truck engine is gona like the stuff....& youre combo is prob 2.5t laden...

krawlr

if its turbo (petrol or diesel) i cant see it being that loud at all.....yes on an aspirated donk!
sit down when you price a new cat aswell

krawlr

oil & coolant feed.....several options to tee into easy!
blocking up the old 2lt egr flange...
boost compensator!! (did you fit one TAZ01?)

i thought 2lt & 2lte still had some differences?

krawlr

krawlr

krawlr
